Acton

He was born in Shrewsbury, Massachusetts in 1877 to a poor but hardworking family.

His father lost his farm when Jesse was a small child and the family had to move into his grandparents' home while his father saved up to buy another small farm, this time in Acton, Massachusetts.

Jesse was said to be a quiet bookish boy who learned to read and write by the time he was three and a half years old.

He excelled at mathematics at school and managed to do three years' worth of arithmetic schoolwork in just one year.

And we moved to a place called Acton, Massachusetts.

Now, Acton, Massachusetts is a very small town outside of a place called Concord, Massachusetts, which is a medium sized town outside of a big town called Boston.

And in this small town of Acton, people, I guess, their ancestors had all come over on the Mayflower.

And there were a lot of Joneses and Smiths.

A pair of fifers and drummers struck up the tune of the White Cockade, and the embattled farmers were on their way to engage some of the finest troops in the King's army.

As soon as the Americans were in motion on Punka-Tasset Hill, Captain Lorry's two outer companies retreated before them and soon joined the third company at the bridge.

It was clearly Lorry's intention to check the American advance at the north bridge, and his leading ranks of light infantry burst forth with the first shots, three of them which fell harmlessly into the river.

The first full British volley followed at a range of seventy-five yards or less.

Their balls whistled well, and Isaac Davis, the Acton captain, was killed as he was raising his gun, and Abner Hosmer, one of his men, fell to the ground with a bullet through his head.

And during that time, I decided to get involved in my local government.
